I wanted more visibility than the forum for an update
for this event. This is cross posted on
tikiwiki-devel and tikiwiki-users.
The deadline for early bird registration is next
Friday, so this is just a reminder about the event,
with some more details....
Cheers - Liz
------
For those of you who have not heard yet, the Ottawa
MapServer Users Group is very busy preparing for Open
Source GIS (OSGIS) 2004 and 2nd Annual MapServer User
Meeting scheduled for June 9-11, 2004 at Carleton
University, Ottawa, Canada.
The early bird registration is available only until
April 30th, so please register soon. Not only does
this save you some money, it also helps us plan for
the numbers that we may expect for the big event.
As you will see on the conference website
(http://www.omsug.ca), some new additions have now
been included:
- Online Registration is now Available!
- We have a number of workshops and presenters
committed -- take a look at the conference program for
details (http://www.omsug.ca/osgis2004/program.html).
This is tentative, but should give you an idea of the
kinds of presenters and topics that will be covered.
- Our program is not full -- so we're looking to you
to give us your suggestions on presentations that you
are interested in giving. See the call for
presentations for more details. We also want to hear
from you about the workshops we have lined up with any
suggestions for others you may be interested in.
- Thank you to our initial sponsors - Tydac, GIS
Monitor and DM Solutions Group. Anyone who is
interested in sponsoring and/or exhibiting, please
contact us. There is also a bonus for early-bird
sponsors before April 30th.
Some additional notes:
The Open Source GIS 2004 component of the Conference
will be focussing on the open source movement within
the GIS community, exposure to the many open source
technologies in use and development in our community
such as OpenEV and Grass, and a stream focussed on
management issues for incorporating Open Source in
your organization. I encourage all of you to look into
participating in this event and help us to get the
word out to those using these technologies. If you
haven't seen a reference to this in your area ...
please pass the message along!
Also - the hotel rooms and conference rates are only
guaranteed through May 9th, so book your
accommodations as soon as possible, as we cannot
provide any guarantees beyond this date. Tourist
season in Ottawa starts in May/June so booking a hotel
late can be tricky.
We are eager for any feedback or comments you may have
so don't hesitate
to contact me directly or provide feedback through the
conference website.
Only 2 months to go! Looking forward to seeing you all
soon here in Ottawa!

That looks cool but I was more meaning a plugin to create the embed object
as now with 1.8.2 we cannot do that as the makeclean removes them :)
